>finish clone wars >last few seasons absolute kino >bunch of loose ends >find out it was abruptly cancelled >good ratings >good reception >last season in production to wrap up ventress, mandalore arcs and any other loose ends >as soon as disney gets lucasarts they cancel it without warning and start rebels
my fucking hatred for disney grows every fucking day fuck
Thank you, fuck the mouse. It seems everything they touch turns to utter shit
Liam Morris
It's cuz legal mombo jombo.
Idk they couldn't run it cuz some bullshit regulation.
To avoid headache they canceled it
Isaiah Hill
Cartoon Network still owned the rights to the TV show. Rather than go through the legal rigamaroo of buying a show off of Sony that was beginning to lag behind in terms of ratings (yes, ratings were beginning to decline), they decided to make their own show and incorporate some elements from the original series.
David Perez
Season 6 came out though, on Netflix
Elijah Myers
I remember I used to have saved a bunch of shitty drawings of clone wars characters that were hilariously cute but I lost them. I'll try to find them.
Dominic Roberts
>kino Fuck off.
Liam Stewart
>It seems everything they touch turns to utter shit
It's more than "seems". Once they got Star Wars, they wanted to make it into a hip new franchise that people could easily get into without having to watch 3 seasons of episodes.
It's kind of like buying a Rolls Royce, taking its hood ornament off and sticking it on your Camry, and throwing the Rolls Royce away.
Jose Bennett
They couldn't let Revan, and thus KOTOR, become canon.
Anthony Walker
It's harder than I thought to find these images. They were really good though
Lincoln Howard
>take care of the >not: handle both of them one job
John Barnes
do you have more?
Ayden Moore
I have plenty, but I'm on the hunt for these shitty pencil drawing skits that I once found
David Taylor
Getting closer I recognize some of these images
Noah Smith
How much more Mando do they get?
Robert Gomez
Dunno what that means. I gave up searching but I did find this which is cool so it means my efforts were not wasted.
Julian Adams
The artstyle just reminded me of the Mandalorian guy who draws pure power fantasies.
Alexander Kelly
>they wanted to make it into a hip new franchise that people could easily get into without having to watch 3 seasons of episodes.
You people are actually insane. A movie has to work on its own merits, not with fucking TV homework. Do you not understand what storytelling is?
Ahsoka should have died in Order 66. All of this "there were secret Jedi the whole time" shit the Mouse is doing ruins the whole atmosphere of the OT.
Ian Reyes
No but they've been trying to basically scrap everything of Star Wars from before they bought it save for specific iconography. They're trying to basically put everything from the Original Trilogies and Prequels 6 feet under and pretend most of it doesn't exist
Hence why they're killing off the original trilogy characters while borrowing the iconography of the original trilogy. They're trying to hit the reset button so they can apply the "science" of mass market appeal onto it for the millennial market. Kids aren't as likely to get invested into a long-standings franchise when the feeling of having to learn it's history is daunting
Gavin Russell
Reminder that this show was on the Toonami line-up, back when toonami was on all Saturday night.
Jonathan Fisher
Actually Rebels had this amazing duel between her and Darth Vader and she gets defeated by him making Anakins transition to the darkside complete since he killed off his own fucking padawan.
but then apparently shes alive
Jason Young
>Remember that episode where the 2 clones help the little twi'lek girl >later episodes with those clone troopers shows he puts her on his armor
Juan Hernandez

Nicholas Watson
>anime eyes
So hes a weeb?
Noah Hill
She shows up in Rebels and has parts of Clone Armor on her with their names on it.
Chase Johnson
>They're trying to basically put everything from the Original Trilogies and Prequels 6 feet under and pretend most of it doesn't exist Rebels is set in the OT era, and almost every SW comic is set in the OT era. I won't speak for the books because I haven't read them, but I'm sure there's some in the OT era too.
Do you have brain damage?
Owen Rogers
Now that you mention it does disney even care about the Clone Wars?
Jordan Wilson
They've touched the prequel era a bit, and they let Dave Filoni continue plot threads from TCW into Rebels (he even has a clone as a supporting character), so they don't hate the era. They're just not actively boosting it, which makes sense, since, you know, that's what the biggest Star Wars stuff was after the prequels.
Mason Rodriguez
Clone Wars had its time to shine and is arguable that the video games,comics, and cartoons saved the prequels in the end
Juan Edwards
CW was an expensive show, also Disney hates Lucas stuff and SW fans.
Andrew Ortiz
Only half of it.
Ryan Gomez
When they shit on everything that made the OT great then they fucked up
Nolan Davis
Killing off the old cast just to forced down the horrible new cast no one likes is a fucking insult
Oliver Russell
The show was literally being funded at a loss out of George Lucas's own pocket.
Grayson Sullivan
which episodes?
Joseph Gutierrez
At least Rebels is almost as good, and made by mostly the same people.
Justin Bailey
>Rebels looks a million times worse >say the art is based on Ralph McQuarrie's What an insult
Austin Brown
I am still PISSED at TCW for not wrapping up Ventress' story. They had SO MUCH TIME to do it, but instead we get a shitty book only 1% of the fanbase will read...I hate it when they wrap up storylines via a novel. Worst fucking thing. They could've just cut one of those shitty filler arcs for Ventress' conclusion. Ugh.
Landon Parker
Ahsoka isn't a jedi anymore
Landon Bailey

Dylan Reed
S02E16 Homecoming S03E05 Hera's Heroes
Landon Perez
I always thought Dave was an ass man.
Tyler Long
>the Mouse That was a thing in the old EU too.
I really hope the new stuff is further allowed to piss on the "Luke and friends accomplished absolutely nothing" shit from the movies.
no. NO! you connot be fucking serious, I stopped following rebels a while ago but the ahsoka vs vader scene and her death was the best and most emotional moment in the show.
PLEASE tell me they didn't ruin that as well afterwards
Ethan Russell
I have a couple of those wallpaper size if you want them
Easton Perry
We never see her die, so a lot of people are clinging onto hope that she's alive. I hope that stupid cunt is rotting desu
Mason Howard
Rebels is absolute dog shit early clone wars is better than this trash
Charles Hill
But Revan, and thus KOTOR, is now canon.
The visual guide for the new film explained the origin of the sith necklace, it belonged to a jedi fighting the neo mandalorian crusaders, and later the republic.
Cooper Hill
They weren’t Jedi though, just padawans. Luke was the first person in 25 years to be recognized as a Jedi by the remaining council member.
Carter Bell
>Weebs in the military
I always got the impression they were more common than you'd think. Not quite sure why that is, but there's a nagging feeling in the back of my head.
